2 From the Outside In…Cell Wall rigid structure located on the outside of the cellFunction: Support and ProtectionFound: Plants, Fungi, Bacteria, some ProtistsCell Membrane Flexible membrane between the cell and its environmentFunction: allow nutrients to enter and leave the cell

6 Endoplasmic Reticulum Sites of chemical reactions (SER and RER)Golgi Apparatus flattened stack of tubular membranes that sorts proteins into packages and packs them to be sent to the appropriate destinationVacuolesstorage area for food, enzymes, and other materials

10 Microtubule thin, hollow cylinders made of protein Microfilaments smaller, solid protein fibers*together they shape, anchor, and support many organelles*provide a system through which materials moveCentrioles play an important role in cell division

11 Cilia short, numerous projections that look like hairs Flagella longer projections that move in a whip-like motion**Aid in the locomotion of the cell or in feeding
